Read This: 'Dave Barry's History of the Millenium (So Far)'

Updated 10:00 pm, Sunday, September 23, 2007

The latest book by Pulitzer Prizewinning humorist Dave Barry is his twisted take on the first few years of the new millennium, prefaced by his brief but equally warped overview of the previous 1,000 years. There has been plenty of unusual news, celebrity misbehavior and all-around utter foolishness so far during the 2000s for Barry to lampoon. There's nothing harder for a writer than to be consistently funny but Barry always makes it look ridiculously easy. He seamlessly segues from his glib twists on news stories to taking jabs at political figures to offering up general mockery.
